[jira] [Created] (KUDU-2341) [DOCS] Kudu/Sentry docs are out of date

Thomas Tauber-Marshall created KUDU-2341:
--------------------------------------------

             Summary: [DOCS] Kudu/Sentry docs are out of date
                 Key: KUDU-2341
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-2341
             Project: Kudu
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: documentation
            Reporter: Thomas Tauber-Marshall


The documentation of Impala's support for Sentry authorization on Kudu tables, available here:
http://impala.apache.org/docs/build/html/topics/impala_kudu.html

is out of date. It should be updated to include the changes made in IMPALA-5489. In particular:
- Access is no longer "all or nothing" - we support column-level permissions
- Permissions do not apply "to all  SQL operations" - we support SELECT- and INSERT-specific permissions. DELETE/UPDATE/UPSERT still require ALL

We should also document that "all on server" is required to specify "kudu.master_addresses" in a CREATE, even for managed tables, in addition to be required to CREATE any external table.
